Take the Positive Effects of Your Wellbeing Retreat Home with You

Most people choose to go on a wellbeing retreat to increase their fitness, but the benefits to your health and lifestyle much further than that, creating lasting results and habits that make a real difference.

Aside from the physical advantages of taking exercise, studies have shown that moving your body more can lift mood, decrease stress, and improve mental health.

Eating well, with an emphasis on fresh, nutritious ingredients, and cutting out overly processed, refined, and sugary snacks, can also help to boost and maintain your mood. The right foods release energy slowly and constantly, so your body always has enough, and help to provide the right balance of hormones, preventing mood crashes.

Simply being out of doors, in the open air, is a great way to defuse some of the stress and tension built up in your body. By reconnecting with the environment, we can let go of everyday worries and cares.

It might be easy to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle whilst you’re on a retreat, but do the lessons last in the long term? Wellbeing retreats are all about creating healthy habits that are easy to maintain, so you can work them into your everyday routine without making radical changes.

The social side of a retreat is as important as the activities you carry out. Bonding over shared goals, experiences and achievements helps friendships, creating a sense of happiness and peace. The connections you make can last long after you leave, helping you to keep up the good habits and mindfulness you have learned.
